And remember that as soon as you have discovered a decent odd job man in Amble, you will be calling him in for even more jobs in the future.

1. Define which jobs you need doing. Firstly, make a complete list of any jobs that you need doing. Bear in mind that an odd job man is best used for those smaller jobs like repairing a fence, putting up shelves, hanging pictures or assembling flat pack furniture. You should hire a skilled Amble tradesman if you have more complex jobs such as electrical work, plumbing or gas fitting.

2. Have a proper look around. Speak to a minimum of three Amble odd job men and where possible check any online reviews that are available. Ask about their specific fields of expertise and how many years experience they have as an odd job man in Amble. Be sure to look at any references they have been given by former customers. Verify that each potential odd job man has the experience and skill to do your job properly.

3. Ask for photographs. Everyone takes photos of their work these days, ask to see a portfolio. A picture is worth a thousand words, so use this tip to learn more about their working standards. Many Amble odd job men will have a Facebook page or website, check it out.

4. Be wary of scams. Steer clear of odd job men who offer their services without invitation. Also steer clear of any odd job man/woman who will not give a firm price for the project or demands upfront payment. Asking for payment upfront is a definate no-no and any odd job man in Amble asking for this should not be trusted.

5. Get everything in writing. Be insistent on getting an agreement in writing and this should include a payment schedule, itemised costs and complete details of the work, as well as be signed by your odd job man/woman. Set out clear and precise project starting and finishing times. Getting everything you have agreed in writing is essential.

6. Ask for the work to be guaranteed. Asking for a one year guarantee for the work is not unreasonable. You might be more inclined to employ an odd job man/woman who is prepared to give a written guarantee for their work.

7. Carry out an inspection. Prior to paying the odd job man for the project, inspect everything he/she has done. Make certain that everything listed in the agreement has been carried out to your satisfaction. Generally speaking your average odd job man will happily run through everything with you to ensure you are satisfied with the job.
